[PATCH 24/31] scsi: Make scsi_initialize_rq() zero the entire struct scsi_cmnd

From: Bart Van Assche <hidden>
Date: 2017-05-24 00:34:32
Also in: linux-scsi
Subsystem: scsi subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: "James E.J. Bottomley", "Martin K. Petersen", Linus Torvalds

This simplifies the memset() call in scsi_initialize_rq() and avoids
that any stale data is left behind in struct scsi_request.
